    I cant tell you how much it means to me that you guys have followed this long build!! Thankyou guys so much for the complaments. I have learned and respect all of you more than you know.there is no one besides you guys that can actually appriciate the hard work, time and thought process put into a build like this. Thanks again guys!!!! I like to be alone on maiden voyages, so no filming will take place. But i ( promise) after shes dialed ill post footage.

        Maritimo's rule

        Dude , What can i say , YOUR MARITIMO IS AWESOME!!!!!!!! Your right i would love to have the cats together racing down a straight, it would look awesome. After seeing that pic of your bike you built i new you would come up with some good ideas. The CF looks real nice inside the hull , And i love what you did with water proof box for the esc's. The inside of the hull is clean and well thought out. The paint job is sick . Your going to love the way the hull handles . Be proud bro it's one of the nicest Timo's I've seen . Right at this moment I'm charging the lipo's for a run , So I'll be thinking about you. Good luck WOLF. !!!!!! MARITIMO'S RULE !!!!!! BONEWAR

              Very Very Nice build. The build quality is awesome!
              Did you waterproof the Himodels? If so, how?

                      allright, miss elam decided to wet her pants and let water in the hull , via water inlet.. she puffed the esc. the good thing is shes settled down right before, and she is F A S T !!! BUT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT MISSSSS MARITIMO.. SHE IS PIST!!!!!!! ILL LOAD TWO VIDEOS. SHE SEEMS TO LOOSEN UP A LITTLE TOWARDS THE END OF THE RUNS DUE TO ( LIPO HEAT). IM THINKING OF BRING THE STRUT ANGLE UP JUST A TAD, AS I FEEL SHES RUNNING TOO WET. BUT SHES HEAVY AS WELL.SO IM NOT SURE. I DIDNT RUN EGNEGS PROPS, BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF LOOSING THEM DUE TO SHAFT PROBLEMS ON THE BENCH.THOSE PROB'S ARE SETTLED NOW & NEXT RUN WILL HAVE OHHH, 2' DEG. POS ANGLE AND EGNEG'S PROPS. I THREW IN THE GPS BUT IT LOST SIGNAL...KINDA CLOUDY HERE AND ALL THE CARBON IN THE HULL DOESNT HELP...I THINK SHES IN THE 50'S TOWARD THE END. ALSO WHATS WITH THE SKIPPING IN TURNS? MY CG FEELS RIGHT, STRUT ANGLE WONT HELP THAT ? WILL IT?HELP, THIS LITTLE GIRL WANTS TO BE LET LOOSE..man.. you tube takes for ever!! its gonna take a couple hrs..

                            Looks awesome! Maybe try to loosen her up a bit. Move the cg back a little, or try a little pos. strut angle. Looks pretty damn fast to me though! I'm sure it can handle more prop too.

                              Not bad at all! Yep...put the CG back 1/2" at a time.

                              I think I was more impressed to see you walking on water....wow! You could be the chosen one!!

                                Temps were good besides the batteries, they were at 170 deg f THIS IS TOO MUCH RIGHT? MOTORS WERE OK, AND ESC'S AS WELL. IM LIMITTED ON MOVING THE CG BACK , BUT IVE GOT ANOTHER 1'' SO ILL TRY THAT. IF THAT ISNT ENEPH ILL CHANGETHE STRUT'S ANGLES. I THINK THIS WILL TAKE SOME OF THE LOAD OFF THE ELECTRONICS AS WELL( BATT;S)DOES IT SKIP IN THE TURNS DO TO THE WEIGHT?
